IP Interface Specifications

1. Configuration outline
These interface specifications describe the interface protocol between the AV-HS410 (live switcher)and external devices.
To use this function, you must install the plug-in software for external interface control.
The interface enables bus switching and control of AUTO transition and other functions from anapplication which runs on the PC connected to the AV-HS410 through the network.

2. Switcher control
2.1. Communication settings
The configuration settings for communication with the AV-HS410 are given below.
 10Base-T/100Base-T
 IPv4
 TCP/IP
 IP Address:
Adjustable by menu (Factory setting: 192.168.0.8)
 Subnet Mask:
Adjustable by menu (Factory setting: 255.255.255.0)
 Port No.:
60040
(fixed: connection to up to 4 ports concurrently is possible for the purposesof external control) Minimum command interval:
1 frame or more
For details on the configuration of the communication commands, refer to chapter 2, for details on
the commands of the functions, refer to chapter 3.
2.2. Command configuration
One packet starts with [STX]0x02 and ends with [ETX]0x03.
A command consists of 4 characters which are followed by a colon ( : ) and the data.
With some commands, multiple sets of data follow one command, in which case the sets of data areeach separated by a colon ( : ).
Numerical data is also sent using the ASCII format.

Caution!
1. Even for image materials for which crosspoint is not set (unassigned status), if an input number andmaterial name are selected by using Parameter 2 of the SBUS command, crosspoint selection ispossible. In this case, the crosspoint button on the operating panel will be unlit.
2.

If you select a crosspoint number for image materials for which crosspoint is not set (unassigned
status) by using Parameter 2 of the SBUS command, the unassigned crosspoint will not be selected,
and the previous crosspoint will be enabled.
